Accelerate your growth. Protect your value. Anticipate your challenges.

Our clients, whether they are business owners, investors, or shareholders in companies, they all appreciate receiving optimal support during all key phases of their projects: M&A, disposals, financing, fundraising and restruturing.

Buy and Sell-side M&A

Drive your exit or expansion.
Selling or acquiring a company is a precise transaction. We manage the entire transaction process, from initial valuation and preparation of the file to searching for buyers, final signing, and closing, on both the sell side (disposal) and the buy side (acquisition).

Fundraising, Financing

Powering your growth.
We manage your entire fundraising process, from the market sizing to closing the deal. Using our proprietary tools, we identify and approach the most relevant investors while producing all of your strategic materials (business plan, valuation, pitch deck, etc.).

Distressed M&A, Restructuring

Secure the path and restore value and trust.
Every company can experience air-turbulence. Our approach is pragmatic: financial diagnosis, IBR, debt renegotiation, cash flow optimization, search for investors and new money. Our intervention enables to stabilize the situation and redefine a viable flight plan.

Transaction services, Valuations

Have you already buyers interested by your business or an acquisition target? We support our clients to secure and optimize each stage of their project individually: due diligence, valuation, business plan modeling, market and competitive analysis, buyer search, scouting of strategic acquisition targets.

Would you rather have a banker who wastes time having lunch or a banker who uses technology to get the best deal done?

It's insane: Traditional M&A investment banks use outdated methods to sell companies or raise funds. They are so much expensive, so slow, and miss out on 80% of potential buyers due to a lack of tools. Today, relying on a simple local address book rather than the power of AI means accepting to sell your company at a bargain price and wasting precious time.

ValuationAlgorithmic accuracy and identification of levers to increase it.Risky and subjective. It depends on the buyer.Approximate, intuitive, and poorly documented.
Sourcing Buyers and InvestorsGlobal & Outside the box. Expanded analysis to uncover hidden synergies and strategic and cultural fit.Risky. You answer the door to anyone who knocks, and you're at the mercy of the market.Very restricted with limited local network of buyers. Even worst, some brokers just post sell-side opportunities on their website without proactively seeking buyers.
Quality of ServiceTechnology improves service and reduces our fixed costs, allowing us to have a single senior contact person who is responsive and accessible.You are on your own. Requires a lot of involvement while running your business.Black box. Little visibility. The seniors are working on the big deals; you are relegated to junior roles to reduce their costs.
Speed and probability of closing the dealMaximized thanks to the team's M&A experience + AI tools.Low. Risk of burnout, strategic error, and high dropout rate.Random. Process can be delayed and deals fall through during due diligence.
FeesInterests 100% aligned with the client. Transparency and no hidden costs. All work is done in-house. Fees < 2% (average per deal)Free but time consuming and valuation at risk.Opaque and very high (fees > 5-6%) At the discretion of the client and hidden costs (e.g. financial and accounting data, VDD outsourced to third parties at your expense).
